The problem I've found is the whole work-life balance thing. At some point in many people's lives, priorities change. Instead of hacking on an open source project or grabbing the latest book on Node or Scala, you opt to spend time with your family or relaxing a bit. At that point in your life, you likely have a very solid skillset and can do remarkable work in your job. But, it doesn't necessarily prepare you much for whatever's next. And balancing that is extremely difficult.
